Chamberlain Sees Key Men In Coal Bow
London reports Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain and top ministers weighing Britain’s reply to Italy over the German coal blockade.

The government aims for a polite but firm note upholding international law and Britain’s seizure rights while offering Italy an alternative coal supply from British mines.
